What is Gear?
Gear is a camera equipment tracker for photographers and collectors who are tired of managing their inventory in spreadsheets or paying monthly fees to cloud apps that lock up their own data behind a subscription.
Built primarily for vintage camera equipment — bodies, lenses, and accessories — but works for any camera gear at any price point. Runs entirely in your browser, stored locally on your device.
Who it’s for
- Vintage camera and lens collectors
- Photographers who want a clean inventory of their working kit
- Shooters who buy, sell, and want to track acquisition cost vs. resale value
- Anyone who wants a proper offline database for their gear
What’s inside
Item catalog — Store make, model, year, serial number, condition, acquisition date, purchase price, estimated current value, and notes. Attach photos directly to each item record.
Condition tracking — Use built-in grades (Mint, Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor) or define your own. See condition at a glance across your whole collection.
Value history — Track what you paid and what each item is worth now. Run a quick net gain/loss snapshot at any time.
Search & filter — Find anything instantly. Filter by category, condition, year range, or price. Everything is local — no waiting on a slow cloud sync.
CSV export — Get your data out whenever you want it. For insurance purposes, resale listings, or just peace of mind.
Why not a spreadsheet?
Spreadsheets work until they don’t. No photo attachments, no structured condition grading, no calculated totals that update automatically. Gear gives you a proper database with a clean interface — without a monthly bill.
